There is no official most-wanted list in British Columbia. But The Province has compiled this list of 14 bad guys and one girl who are definitely priorities for police in Metro Vancouver and across the province.

1: David Fomradas

5-foot-11, 161 pounds

Last summer, the 35-year-old was reported on an unauthorized absence and is wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for being at large.

Fomradas was on a day-pass from Port Coquitlam’s Colony Farm Psychiatric Hospital when he disappeared.

He was placed at the hospital after being found not criminally responsible on charges of assault with a weapon, aggravated assault, dangerous driving, theft, kidnapping and mischief, relating to a 2009 incident in which he carjacked a vehicle in front of the CBC building in Vancouver. The passenger in the vehicle was Vancouver actress Carly Pope.

2: Michael Andreou Michalakis

6-foot-1, 221 pounds

Michalakis has two provincewide warrants for six failures to comply with conditions after he was charged with sexual assault in Prince George. The 51-year-old also has one Canada-wide warrant outstanding for an immigration offence.

Two vehicles are registered in his name, a blue 1992 Chevrolet pickup with B.C. plates DB 1240, and a blue 1993 Volkswagen Passat four-door with the B.C. license 061 SKL.

He is considered violent.

3: Barrie Quirt Friesen

5-foot-9, 177 pounds

A warrant was issued in January 2012 after Friesen, 54, failed to report from jail to a community-based residential facility in Kamloops to serve the remainder of his sentence.

Friesen, who has at least 88 prior convictions, has used several aliases since his disappearance and has a history of vehicle theft and impaired driving.

He has bracelet tattoos around each wrist, spelling City of Angels and Katrina, and more on his right upper arm (panther) and right forearm (snake and dagger).

Friesen has a history of violence and should not be approached.

4: Howard Solomon O’Soup

5-foot-10, 200 pounds

The 34-year-old walked away from an escorted visitation last March at the Nanaimo Regional Correctional Centre.

O’Soup also has a warrant out for a break-and-enter in Langley after his fingerprints were discovered in an apartment that had its door kicked in and contents strewn all over.

O’Soup, also wanted for a recent break-and-enter in New Westminster, is suspected of hiding out in Surrey.

5: The Grey-Haired Groper

A silver-haired man who appears to be in his 60s is wanted by transit police as well as the VPD for groping women on buses.

He boards, sits next to a female with his arms crossed so that one hand is hidden, then reaches that hand under his crossed arm to fondle women’s breasts.

The 135 (Burrard Station-SFU) is his main route, but he has been seen on other bus routes as well.

6: Kyle Everette Tribull

5-foot-8 155 pounds

The 25-year-old is wanted on a warrant for sexual assault and should be considered violent.

7: Daniel Thomas Dwyer

Dwyer, of Delta, was arrested 15 months ago at the Vancouver airport after Richmond RCMP’s airport crime unit discovered 27 kilograms of marijuana in his luggage. Dwyer, 49, was charged with possession of a controlled substance for the purposes of trafficking, but never showed up for a court appearance.

8: Bernard Barton

6-foot, 203 pounds, scar on left cheek

A warrant was issued for the 37-year-old’s arrest when he failed to reside at a Chilliwack treatment centre after being granted bail in July 2013. There is also a warrant for theft involving a motor vehicle. He may be armed and dangerous.

9: Troy Pye

5-foot-10, 216 pounds

The Vancouver Police Department issued a warrant for the 34-year-old with the tattoo ROBERT RIP on his chest for carrying a concealed weapon, drug possession and breach of probation. The VPD warns he is dangerous and may be armed.

10: Carlos Edgardo Flores

5-foot-10, 205 pounds

A warrant was issued when the 29-year-old allegedly broke his 10 p.m.-to 7-a.m. curfew at his Coquitlam residence on Dec. 8. His curfew stemmed from an ongoing court case in Surrey after Flores was charged with sexual interference of a person under 16, and another charge of sexual assault.

Police warn not to approach him if you see him.

11: Michael Barry Toulouse

6-foot, 181 pounds

The 24-year-old failed to comply with his probation and fell off the radar last summer.

Police in Prince George warn he is violent.

12: Robin Allen Youngs

5-foot-11 205 pounds

The 48-year-old, who is missing a finger, is wanted in the Interior for three assault charges, two weapons offensives, two counts of uttering threats and breach of recognizance.

13: Julio Cesar Bonilla

5-foot-7, 166 pounds

The 24-year-old is wanted on a warrant for assaulting a police officer in Prince George.

Prince George RCMP, understandably, label him as violent.

14: Nakheita Irene Cunningham

5-foot-4, 146 pounds

Prince George RCMP issued a warrant for Cunningham, 25, for failing to comply with probation. She’d been sentenced to six months probation for assaulting a peace officer.

The police say the 25-year-old should be considered dangerous.

15: Calvin Gordon Braconnier

5-foot-7, 144 pounds

The 55-year-old with grey hair and brown eyes is wanted in the Central Okanagan for possession of stolen property, possession of a controlled substance, theft and impaired driving. You might recognize him by an unusual marking – a horshoe shaped scar on his forehead.
